I simply can't believe that "burn-in" if it's even real can make that much of a night and day difference. Going from "trailer trash" to "trump tower?" It doesn't make sense.
Wouldn't that say that the people who make these don't know what they are doing? That they are listening to crappy sounding headphones and then selling them as "good?" Or do they "burn in" every headphone for 500 hours before listening to them to be sure it is going to be "good?" And how come everyone else thinks they are basically good when they first hear them?
I'm sorry to offend, I just can't believe it is anything much more than a placebo effect. I could possibly accept someone saying there were some minor differences after a few hours, but even that is more likely just a case of them getting used to the sound and hearing things their ears have not been used to hearing. To say it is such an extreme change from crappy to brilliant just defies reality, in my humble opinion. With all due respect, I think it's 99 percent in your head.
